I am going through looking over my Math courses in preparation for college so I am prepared and know what I am going to walk into and maybe have a head start than most of the people. What should be reviewed before walking into Pre-Algerbra?
You want an advice? Learn pre-algebra yourself at home or from friends. Its super easy not worth learning at college. Trust me. Then challenge for placement test so they'll let you jump directly to Calculus.
That's what I did back then. you can save money for that credit, finish college quicker by skipping those pre-algebra and algebra. That's 2 coursework you can save. use the time to make amazing map!
Oh here's more detailed advice. Learn from that guy giving online math course video. What's his name? Khan i think.
That's his video web:

Sorry man you confuse me. I am going to be a HS senior next year and I already took a full on algebra course. Do you mean pre-college algebra or in college pre-algebra? I would basically remember formulas, binomials, polynomials, and difference of squares. Anything fraction or the x root of the number would help too. What happens if you take 2 to the 3rd? You get 8. What happens when you take the third root of 8? You get 2. It's not that bad really.
Arn't Algebra and Pre-Algebra Middle school or High school level courses? I skipped Pre-Algebra and took Algebra I in middle school. Do you mean Algebra II? Or Algebra III (usually known as precalculus) or something else I have never herd of. If you havent taken any Algebra I suggest you go for a real class with a teacher because if you don't understand Algebra you won't understand any higher math.
I am just reevaluating my math skills in preparation for college. I don't need to go find something deep where it starts from the beginning. Just getting a refresher before I jump into college.
@UED Yes, I was referring to precalculus, I forgot what it was called, my apologies.
Hey guys,

Oh and it's free too. Bill Gates even watch his videos to recall some of the memories!

Read above, I took pre-algebra in 6th grade.

Thank you Makn, I found what I was looking for.
